Kindle Notes & Highlights
When queer activists appropriated the word ‘gay’ from its traditional meaning of ‘happy’, they achieved their goal of simultaneously increasing gayness and decreasing happiness.
And she managed to achieve all of this with a total lack of charm and a face like a robber’s dog.
Anybody who has ever taken even a rudimentary course in Gender Studies will know that there are literally no biological differences between men and women. Except in the case of trans people, who are born in the wrong body.
Males will often cite pseudo-scientific fields of study such as ‘biology’, ‘medicine’ or ‘endocrinology’
If you’ve ever wondered why honkies get so uppity when you call them racist without any apparent justification, this is the book for you.
It is not racist to hate someone on the basis of their skin colour, if that person is white.
In order to sustain the dignity of POCs, we should not be holding them to the same standards as whites.
Lam was completely justified in speaking out on behalf of the one billion Chinese people on this planet, who doubtless all felt exactly the same way.
I would go further and say that for a white person to participate in yoga is effectively to re-enact the British Army’s massacre of a thousand Indian civilians at Amritsar in 1919.
As Laurie Penny puts it, ‘nice guys rape, and they do it often’. Some of the nicest men I’ve ever known have been serial rapists.
Plants are so much more accommodating than men. I am currently in a very fulfilling relationship with a cactus called Josh. The sex is difficult, but not impossible. That’s what tweezers were invented for.
I lost my virginity to a bonsai tree; quite by accident, I’ll admit, but that hardly matters.
It never ceases to amaze me how defensive Brexit voters get when you point out that they’re fascists.
Deceived and semi-felched we blindly plunge To racist bubblebaths of broken dreams.
That’s the wonderful thing about identity politics; you never have to explain yourself, or even develop your thoughts into what right-wingers call a ‘coherent argument’.
The company has tried to weasel its way out of its responsibilities by pointing out that most of their pilots are male and most of their cabin crew are female. But the question one must ask is: why are the pilots paid more than the people who serve the drinks?
‘What about African-American women with penises?’ they cried. ‘Why is no one going around with a black cock on their head?’
Socialism has been an unqualified success wherever it has been implemented.
There is nothing particularly male about having a huge beard, broad shoulders and a massive cock. My friend Belinda is hung like a shire stallion. That doesn’t make her any less feminine.
I can envisage no better way to celebrate diversity than to shun those bigots who refuse to learn the correct terminology,
I know what is best for the trans community, even if they don’t know it themselves.
Children need to understand that vaginas, penises, ovaries, testes and fallopian tubes are all mere social constructs.
It is essential that we teach them that the very concept of gender is a fabrication, but is simultaneously the most essential aspect of their self-identity.
Every time I hear about another act of jihadist terrorism my heart sinks because I know there’ll be a horrible Islamophobic backlash.
There is no genuine inconsistency between gay rights and Islam.
We could see evidence of this when Islam was rebranded as The Religion Of Peace™, which I think we can all agree is much catchier.
This also helps to remind everyone that when somebody drives a truck into a group of pedestrians, shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’, it has absolutely nothing to do with Islam.
When I performed my poem ‘God and Other Pederasts’ at my local library’s over-sixties reading club, I was asked to leave. Apparently they found my miming ‘obscene and distressing’.
At Oxford, a debate on abortion was cancelled because a man with incorrect views was scheduled to appear. Debates are all very well in principle, but there’s no need to represent all sides of an argument.
Nobody can fathom why the girl indulged in this racist outburst. Some have surmised that it might have something to do with the word being a continual feature in the song’s lyrics.
We need to challenge the lazy assumption that people aren’t racist just because they never say or do racist things.
Studies show that 96 per cent of respondents would run away if they heard someone shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ in a public place.
The phrase ‘free speech’ is a racist dog whistle.
The only way we can stop fascism is if the police are allowed to arrest people for what they say and think.
